RRB NTPC

RRB NTPC (Non-Technical Popular Categories) is among the largest recruitment exercises by Indian Railways, conducted by the Railway Recruitment Boards to fill posts in both Graduate and Undergraduate level categories. Graduate posts include Junior Clerk cum Typist, Accounts Clerk cum Typist, Junior Time Keeper, Traffic Assistant, Goods Guard, and Senior Commercial cum Ticket Clerk. Undergraduate posts include Junior Clerk cum Typist, Accounts Clerk cum Typist, Junior Time Keeper, and Commercial cum Ticket Clerk.

RRB NTPC typically draws crore-plus applications — the 2019 recruitment cycle attracted over 1.26 crore candidates for approximately 35,000 vacancies. The selection process includes Computer Based Test Stage 1 (preliminary), Computer Based Test Stage 2 (mains), and a Skill Test or Typing Test followed by Document Verification and Medical Examination for specific posts.

Railway jobs come with a unique set of perks beyond salary: free railway passes (PTOs) for self and family, RELHS medical cover, railway quarters at nominal rent, and NPS pension. The annual 3% increment and biannual DA revision steadily grow the in-hand salary over time.
